Suunto 9 Peak Pro?
-
@Likarnik why upgrade if your watch still works anyways ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Older watches as S9/s5 also support suunto store and thus will be future proof to some degree. -
@Likarnik I think that everboby has their needs. I can’t care less about sleep quality or rest HR but I care a little bit more about burned calories (not much). I agree with you that regarding connectivity Suunto is way behind.
Regarding Strava Live Segments, do you trust strava segments? On saturday my running partner and I run a downhill (less than 4 minutes segment), he was at least 10 seconds faster than me (we both started at the same time, without pause, we both use a S9B and both tracks are identical) eventually Strava says that I am 1 second faster than him, and as this case I can count more than 10. If you really want to know if you are faster the lap button is your friend not Strava, even more in a 20 minutes uphill.

@DMytro if new watch has some new futures that I don’t need (like depth for snorkeling) I will not upgrade. Also battery life is not a problem (100km ultra trail goes fine, for 100miles I can charge between - fast charging in comparison to S9B), but connectivity (pairing and unpairing) is a hassle for me.
@cosme-costa sure, everybody has their own needs. But we were talking about ‘serious’ athletes who (I assume) care about these things. I’m semi serious
but I find those things useful. Yesterday I had quite long bike ride for me and my resting HR was higher than normal. I’ll take it easy today. But I feel ok. And sometimes I think I had a hard workout, but next day I am feeling good and resting HR is also normal. I take other things in consideration also, how many times daughter woke me up during night, how many beers I had if any and so on… More data more fun 
For strava segments I trust them as long GPS data is ok, but I only race myself so I don’t have any experiences like yours. Before strava I had a chalkboard and I had to manually write down my ‘starred segments’ -
@freeheeler I have two of those “Asian” watches (came bundled with two of my sons scales
) from Amazfit and Huawei and they’re quite good qualitywise, get regular updates and are amazingly accurate compared to my H10 chest strap. I have to agree, that fibit devices are awful both on quality and datawise

@dulko79 It looks like it is going to be the same size as S9P. Very disappointing to see that. I was hoping for it to be 45mm or maybe even more, as that would make me change the S9P.
-
@Andrej-Tusek
to me 43 and 45mm would be “the same”… I’ve got 50mm now and would much much appreciate 50mm again but thinner… we’ll see… all the leaks, that’s unusual, I’m not used to that around Suunto

A new font is referenced on that link:
“Great readability: The new font is easier to read. Bigger numbers and contrasting colours make checking the information a breeze, even when on the go.”
If this is the case, that changes everything. The current peak is impossible to read with my crappy eyesight, this might make it useable on a run! I really hope all these new features (hardware excluded) trickle down to the other S9 watches, but they might be constrained by the new processors…
-
@dulko79 thanks! “…Performance and fitness tests: Measure your performance with tests like Cooper test and threshold test…” sounds interesting

@freeheeler said in Suunto 9 Peak Pro?:
I’ve got 50mm now and would much much appreciate 50mm again but thinner.
100% agree!
I dislike a 46mm and smaller watch so much (especially if it’s got a particularly small display because of a big bezel) that I’d buy another S9B down the road before I’d buy something smaller…even if that small watch were newer. As a trail runner, I gotta have a screen that’s big enough to see when I’m bouncing around on uneven terrain.

@TrailEyes
Suunto is doing a lot of things right and very good. Not only soft and firmware, but also the mechanical things like haptics, materials and new position of baro sensors.
unfortunately I don’t get why the S9P was released as a 43mm version only. It is nice for athletes who prefer a small watch, of course. -
@freeheeler I bet they know this and have something bigger planned. It’s just taking longer than we would like
-
@ChrisA that’s alrwady available le on the SA suunto store with is gorgeously implemented. Looks like a new, better looking version of MOVESCOUNT app. I have to admit that I had that sensation of nostalgy and relief and I though ‘SUUNTO IS SUUNTO AGAIN BUT BETTER’
-
@althaea35 thanks - haven’t looked into it for a while. Will give it a try when fit again (had a small surgery and can / should not train).

@aroo7 @freeheeler I have the same exact problem has you. I have quite a big wrist and feel better with a big watch sitting on it. Also I am starting getting old and my eyes are not working in near distance.
I have a S9B titanium and I love it , I wear it loose because otherwise it cause me pain( that’s all the watches not only S9).
I have to admit that whatever the sport I do I gets in my way,it moves to much. Running Hiking, Riding and Weight Lifting it is always moving to much.
I am considering a smaller watch. In my experience is just matter of getting used to it
In a couple of weeks if I will wear back my S9B It will look to big to my eyes. I know for sure.also I found that the actual diplay radius difference between S9B and S9P is 3mm.
So I do not think this have any functional impact. -
@dulko79 I only hope the new UI comes to the S9 line.
@fluca @aroo7 @freeheeler watches are like TVs, the bigger the better
. I have quite good eyesight and I think I could adapt well to a smaller watch but I like to check the data at glance and to do that I need big numbers and few fields, bigger screens helps to that. Right now I do not have the intention of changing my S9B, it is working well and without issues so I still hope it will last some more years. -
today S9PP?
-
@mountainChris definitely!
